Haiku and photo: “Brains”

Brains

If I had my brains /

I’d share some of them with you. /

I’ll keep an eye out.

Photo and poem: “Not a curse”

Not a curse

Get vaccinated. Wear a mask.

Neither are difficult tasks.

Do it for yourself and your friends to see.

Show compassion and responsibility.

It’s not a trick and it’s not a shame.

Treat yourself and others the same.

Kindness and courtesy are not a curse.

Being sick or dead would be far worse.

Rise up now and do your part.

A mask and a shot are moral places to start.

Summer’s fallen dreams /

rests in pieces: Halloween. /

Buried nightmares bloom.

Poem and photo: “Death becomes you”

Death becomes you

Death becomes you, my dear.

Let me hold your hand so our selfie is clear.

Get my bare bones, they show me the best.

All that flesh and muscle — begone all the rest.

I’ll wear my cap. You wear your smile.

Don’t worry about missing teeth. It’s been a while.

Silly Saturday: “Killer Bunnies of the Apocalypse”

Killer Bunnies of the Apocalypse

It’s the Killer Bunnies of the Apocalypse.

Death in their DNA got the slip.

Now they roam the countryside.

Wild, winged, and bent on genocide.

Beware! should you cross their path.

They travel in herds and will attack.

Munch and crunch and chew to the ground

all flora and fauna and toes that can be found.

There is but one way to tame these bunnies.

That is to roll them over and rub their tummies.

But you might not be able to get that near,

at least not until you’ve have a couple of beers.

These bunnies are fierce in their apocalyptic way,

but belly rubs and carrots could save the day.
